Stem cell research is controversial because of its association with abortion, but such research has become essential to understanding the human body and developing new ways to treat disease. Scientists at the University of Southern California (USC) Keck School of Medicine say they have used stem cells to develop a “game-changing” organoid model to study […]

A recent study could provide insights into the neurological symptoms linked to long Covid, including brain fog, lethargy, and depression.

Scientists have grown 'mini-placentas' in the lab and used them to shed light on how the placenta develops and interacts with the inner lining of the womb – findings that could help scientists better understand and, in future, potentially treat pre-eclampsia.

SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes Covid-19, can infect dopamine neurons in the brain and trigger senescence -- when a cell loses the ability to grow and divide, according to a new study.The findings, published in Cell Stem Cell, suggest that ...

Researchers have created "mini-placentas," which serve as biological models of the initial phases of placental development. 

Scientists from New York have found the Covid virus can infect brain cells responsible for mood , stress and movement, which could stop them from functioning properly.

Lab-grown mini-placentas reveal insights on placenta-womb interaction, aiding pre-eclampsia understanding and potential treatment.
